About OFF THE HOOK: A TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE PODCAST
Each episode we will explore the darkest nightmare ever committed to celluloid by looking at the film in 74 second slices (or 1 minute and 14 seconds to be precise) in an ode to the year of its release. As we battle the Texas heat, avoid Hitchhikers, and decline at the table as we go Off the Hook and hack apart the mad and the macabre of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. It’s gonna be a fun trip! And remember-there are moments when we cannot believe what is happening is actually true. But pinch yourself and you might find out that it is.
Mike & Rebecca dissect Hooper's foreshadowing and cultural commentary in Tobe Hooper's 1974 Texas classic, Chain Saw.

Episode 3: 2:28-3:42 "A World of Chaos and Fire"
In our latest installment, Mike and Rebecca continue our discussion of the grotesque corpse perched and posed atop the monument. Plus, the ominous newscast reveals the chaotic world that has devolved into anarchy. We get our first allusions to Watergate as a newscaster discusses the convening of a grand jury while elsewhere crime and terror run rampant. In what can only be described as the timeliest of coincidences, the broadcast concludes with the locals, angry and afraid as their loved ones' eternal slumber has been disturbed, begin pointing fingers at unknown and invisible "outsiders" for these horrid crimes.

Episode 2: A Monument To Decay and Death
Rebecca and Mike continue their van ride down the dusty roads of backwater Texas. This segment begins at 1 minute and 15 seconds and concludes at 2 minute and 29 seconds and we start with a black screen and the sound of digging before a camera flash exposes some macabre discoveries and we end with a somewhat cheesy looking corpse baking in the sun as a radio declares there has been some ‘grave robbing’ in Texas.

Episode 1: 0:00-1:14 "The Opening Crawl"
In our inaugural episode hosts Rebecca and Mike discuss the brilliance of the opening crawl and how it crafts a mood of pure dread and anticipation for what is to come. Plus, "was the news always so bad?": how the radio broadcast delivers a litany of disasters of a world gone mad. All this and so much more.
